or in the drawer (if equipped). This includes paper, plastic
and cloth items, such ascookbooks, plasticware and towels,
aswell asflammable liquids. Do not store explosives,such as
aerosol cans,on or near the appliance. Flammable materials
may explode and result in fire or property damage.
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Use proper pan size--Adjust flame size
so it does not extend beyond the edge of the utensil.
The use of undersize utensils will exposed a portion of the
burner flame to direct contact and may result in ignition of
clothing. Proper relationship of utensil to flame will also
improve efficiency.
Do not leave children alone--Children should not be
left alone or unattended in the area where appliance
is in use, They should never be allowed to sit or stand on
any part of the appliance.
DO NOTTOUCH SURFACE BURNERS,AREAS NEAR
THESEBURNERS,OVEN HEATING ELEMENTS OR
INTERIOR SURFACESOF THE OVEN. Both surface
burners and oven heating elements may be hot even
though they are dark in color. Areas near surface burners
may become hot enough to cause burns. During and after
use, do not touch, or let clothing or other flammable
materials touch these areas until they have had sufficient
time to cool. Among these areas are the cooktop, surfaces
facing the cooktop, the oven vent openings and surfaces
near these openings, oven door and window.
Wear proper apparel--Loose-fitting or hanging
garments should never be worn while using the
appliance. Do not let clothing or other flammable
materials contact hot surfaces.
Do not usestove top grills on the burner
grates of sealed gas burners. If you use a stove top grill on a
sealed gas burner, it will cause incomplete combustion and
can result in exposure to carbon monoxide levels above
allowable current standards. This can be hazardous to your
health.
Electronic controllers can be damaged by
cold temperatures. When you use your appliance for the
first time, or if it has not been used for a long period of
time, make sure that it has been exposed to a
temperature above 0°C/32°F for at least 3 hours before
connecting it to the power supply.
IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING YOUR
COOKTOP
Know which knob controls each surface heating unit.
Always turn the knob to the LITEposition when igniting
the burners. Visually check that burner has lit. Then adjust
the flame so it does not extend beyond the edge of the
utensil.
Do not use water or flour on grease fires--Smother
the fire with a pan lid, or use baking soda, a dry
chemical or foam-type extinguisher.
When heating fat or grease, watch it closely, Fat or
grease may catch fire if allowed to become too hot.
In case of fire or gas leak, be sure to turn
off the main gas shutoff valve.
Use only dry potholders--Moist or damp potholders
on hot surfaces may result in burns from steam. Do
not let potholders touch hot heating elements. Do not use
a towel or other bulky cloth instead of a potholder.
Do not heat unopened food containers--Build-up of
pressure may cause container to burst and result in
injury.
* Remove the oven doors from any unused range if it
is to be stored or discarded.
IMPORTANT--Do not attempt to operate the oven
during a power failure. If the power fails, always turn
the ovens off. If the ovens are not turns off and the power
resumes, the oven may begin to operate again. Food left
unattended could catch fire or spoil.
Use proper pan size. This appliance is equipped with one
or more surface burners of different sizes. Select utensils
having flat bottoms large enough to cover the surface
burner. The use of undersized utensils will expose a portion
of the surface burner to direct contact and may result in
ignition of clothing. Proper relationship of utensil to the
surface burner will also improve efficiency.
Utensil handles should be turned inward and not
extend over adjacent surface burners--To reduce the
risk of burns, ignition of flammable materials, and spillage
due to unintentional contact with the utensil. The handle
of the utensil should be positioned so that it isturned
inward, and does not extend over adjacent surface
burners.
Never leave surface burners unattended at high heat
settings--Boilovers cause smoking and greasy spillovers
that may ignite, or a pan that has boiled dry may melt.
Protective liners--Do not use aluminum foil to line oven
bottom or any other part of the appliance. Only use
aluminum foil as recommended for baking if used as a
cover placed on the food. Any other use of protective
liners or aluminum foil may result in a risk of electric shock
or fire or short circuit.
iMPORTANT SAFETY iNSTRUCTiONS
Glazed cooking utensils--Only certain types of glass, Do not use the broiler pan without its grid. Tile
glass/ceramic, ceramic, earthenware, or other glazed
utensils are suitable for rangetop servicewithout breaking
due to the sudden change in temperature. Check the
manufacturer's recommendations for rangetop use.
Do not use decorative surface burner covers. If a
burner isaccidentally turned on, the decorative cover will
become hot and possibly melt. Burns will occur if the hot
covers are touched. Damage may also be done to the
cooktop or burners because the covers may cause
overheating. Air will be blocked from the burner and
cause combustion problems.
broiler pan and its grid allow dripping fat to drain and be
kept away from the high heat of the broiler.
Do not cover the broiler grid with aluminum foil.
Exposed fat and grease could ignite.
Do not touch a hot light bulb with a damp cloth,
Doing so could cause the bulb to break. Disconnect the
appliance or turn off the power to the appliance before
removing and replacing light bulb.
IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR CLEANING
YOUR RANGE

should break, cleaning solutions and spillovers may
penetrate the broken cooktop and create a risk of electric
shock. Contact a qualified technician immediately.
Clean cooktop glass with caution--If a wet sponge or
cloth is used to wipe spills on a hot cooking area, be
careful to avoid a steam burn. Some cleaners can produce
harmful fumes if applied to a hot surface.
Avoid scratching the cooktop glass with sharp
objects.
IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING YOUR
OVEN
Use care when opening oven door--Stand to the side of
the range when opening the door of a hot oven. Let hot
air or steam escape before you remove or replace food in
the oven.
Keep ovens vents unobstructed. Each vent has its own
vent located on the top, near each side and towards the
back of the cooktop. Touching the surfaces in this area
when the oven is operating may cause severe burns. Also,
do not place plastic or heat-sensitive items on or near an
oven vent. These items could melt or ignite.
Placement of ovens racks. Always place oven racks in
desired location while ovens are cool. If rack must be
moved while oven is hot use extreme caution. Use
potholders and grasp the rack with both hands to
reposition. Do not let potholders contact the hot heating
elements in the ovens. Remove all utensils from the rack
before moving.
Clean the range regularly to keep all parts free of
grease that could catch fire. Exhaust fan ventilation
hoods and grease filters should be kept clean. Do not
allow grease to accumulate on hood or filter. Greasy
deposits in the fan could catch fire. When you are flaming
food under the hood, turn the fan on. Refer to the hood
manufacturer's instructions for cleaning. '_:;
Kitchen cleaners and aerosols--Always follow the ,[[:
manufacturer's recommended directions for use. Be _,;
aware that excess residue from cleaners and aerosols may
ignite causing damage and injury.
SELF CLEANING OVENS
In the self-Cleaning cycle only clean the parts listed
in this Use and Care Guide. Before self cleaning the
oven, remove the broiler pan and any utensils or foods
from the oven.
Do not use oven cleaners--No commercial oven
cleaner or ovens liner protective coating of any kind
should be used in or around any part of the oven.
Do not clean door gasket--The door gasket is essential
for a good seal. Care should be taken not to rub, damage
or move the gasket.
Remove oven racks. Oven racks color will change if left
in the oven during a self-cleaning cycle.

characteristics:
Selecting Surface
Cooking Utensils
Pansshould have flat bottoms. Check for
flatness by rotating a ruler across the
bottom. There should be no gap between
the pan and ruler.
Note: Always use a utensil for its
intended purpose. Follow manufacturer's
instructions. Some utensils were not made
to be used in the oven or on the cooktop.
Do not usegriddle over
more than one burner becauseit could
damage your cooktop. It can also result in
exposure to carbon monoxide levelsabove

requirements.
ifi" ii
Z
DO NOT use a wok if it is equipped
with a metal ring that extends
beyond the burner unit. Because this
ring traps heat, the surface unit and
cooktop surface could be damaged.
Woks with flat bottoms suitable
for use on your cooktop are
available in most cookshop or
hardware stores. Round-
bottomed woks (with a support
ring that does not extend
beyond the burner unit) may
also be used. The metal ring
was designed to support the
wok safelywhen it isfilled with
large amounts of liquids (soup
making) or fat (frying).
Specialty Pans & Trivets
Wire trivets: Do not usewire trivets. Cookware bottoms must be in direct
contact with the grates.
DO NOT usetwo burner units to heat one large pan such as a
roaster or griddle, or allow cooking utensils to boil dry. The bottom surface of
the pan in either of these situations could cause discoloring or crazing of the
appliance cooking surface, and damage to the grates and burner units.
Canning Tips &
Information
Canning
can generate large
amounts of steam. Use
extreme caution to
prevent burns. Always
raise the lid to vent steam
away from you.
1. Use tested recipes and follow instructions carefully. Check with your local Cooperative
Agricultural Extension Service or a manufacturer of glassjars for the latest canning
information.
2. Use flat-bottomed canners only. Heat is spread more evenly when the bottom surface is
flat.
3. Center canner on the burner grate.
4. Start with hot water and a high heat setting to reduce the time it takes to bring the water
to a boil; then reduce the heat setting aslow as possible to maintain a constant boil.
5. It isbest to can small amounts and light loads.
Prevent damage to cooktop and burner grates:
I. Do not usewater bath or pressure canners that extend more than one inch beyond the
edge of the burner grate.
2. Do not leavewater bath or pressure canners on high heat for an extended amount of time.
3. Alternate surface units between each batch to allow the units and surrounding surfaces to
cool down. Tryto avoid canning on the same burner unit all day.
Safe canning requires that harmful micro-organisms are destroyed and the jars
are sealed completely. When canning in a water bath canner, a gentle but steady boil must be
maintained continuously for the required time.

Surface
Cooking
FEATURE OVERVIEW
Using the Wok Stand
Always use
potholders to remove the
wok stand from the grate.
Allow the wok stand to cool
before removing. Do not
set hot wok stand on
surfaces that cannot
withstand high heat such as
countertops.
The Wok Stand must be used on either of the front burners, although it is recommended that
you use the larger burner for best performance.
If properly positioned, the Wok Stand cannot be slid off the grate.
Do not use the rear burner next to the Wok
when this one is on use.
To properly position the Wok Stand:
With the grate in position over the burner, set the Wok Stand on top of the grate. Turn the
Wok Stand, as shown, until the grate fingers fit into the slots on the bottom of the stand.
Be sure the grate stand is positioned correctly and stably before useto prevent
hot spills and possible burns.
Flat-bottomed woks may also be
used on your cooktop without the
Wok Stand.
The WOK STAND fits
over grate fingers.
Round-bottomed woks (with a support ring that does not extend beyond the burner
unit) may also be used without the Wok Stand. The metal ring was designed to support the
wok safely when it isfilled with large amounts of liquids (soup making) or fat (frying).
DO NOT use a wok if it isequipped with a metal ring that extends beyond the burner unit.
Because this ring traps heat, the surface unit and cooktop surface could be damaged.

Flame Size
For most cooking, start on the highest control setting and then turn to a lower one to
complete the process. Usethe table below as a guide for determining proper flame size for
various types of cooking. The size and type of utensil used and the amount of food being
cooked will influence the setting needed for cooking.
Fordeep fat frying, usea thermometer and adjust the surface control knob accordingly. If
the fat istoo cool, the food will absorb the fat and be greasy. If the fat istoo hot, the food
will brown so quickly that the center will be undercooked. Do not attempt to deep fat fry too
much food at once asthe food will neither brown nor cook properly.

*These settings are based on using medium-weight aluminum pans with lids.
Settings may vary when using other types of pans.
Never extend the flame beyond the outer edge of the utensil. A higher flame simply wastes
heat and energy, and increases your risk of being burned by the flame.
Proper Burner Adjustments
The color of the flame isthe key to proper burner adjustment. A good flame isclear, blue and
hardly visible in a well-lighted room. Eachcone of flame should be steady and sharply defined.
Adjust or clean burner if flame isyellow-orange. To adjust the flame see the Installation
Instructions and to clean burner, see instructions under General Cleaning.
